THIS is the moment an alleged paedophile was forced out of his home by angry locals after they are said to have “discovered his past”.

It's thought it was the second time the man and a woman, said to be his “girlfriend,” had to leave their council home in the Hull area, this week.

Footage shows the man and woman, who have not been identified, as well as a dog, being escorted out of the premises by members of Humberside Police on Friday evening.

The man being escorted out is thought to be a convicted sex offender jailed for three and a half years for a string of sexual offences in Hull, according to the Hull Daily Mail.

One eyewitness said: "This has caused major upset. Groups of people have gathered and are shouting abuse through the letter box.

“People are very angry."

Cops are said to have been called to another property on Wednesday night where the man had previously been housed by Hull City Council, according to paper’s website.

Tension in the area had risen ever since paedophile hunters are said to have tracked the sex offender down and revealed where he lived, according to the report.

The property where he had lived is said to have been vandalised with offensive graffiti daubed on the boarded-up window and front door.

Speaking on Thursday, neighbour Stacy Carter told Hull Live: “The police were around last night and this morning.

"One of the windows has been smashed in the paedophile’s home and now someone has scrawled n**** on the boarded-up window and door.

“There are families with babies and young children living here who are now very worried.

“We want to know why they have put a paedo so close to two schools. He can see the academy from his kitchen window.”

Another neighbour said: “The police told me I shouldn’t judge people on their previous offences but what am I supposed to think?

“He should be moved out of Hull altogether and into an area where he is not known.

“He should be tagged and police should make residents aware of who he is.”

The website reports the appeared to have been moved on after the vigilante group revealed his alleged crimes and his address.

It is thought though the same group then revealed his new location which sparked anger from residents and the police needed to step in.

On Thursday, a Hull city council spokeswoman said: “We and the police are aware of the local action that has been taken against this tenant.

“Local authorities have a duty to provide accommodation for ex-offenders and there are very strict regulations in place regarding this.

“No property would be allocated without these strict criteria being met.

“Ex-prisoners live in all communities and if they are to be successfully rehabilitated they need to live a life free from harassment or threat of illegal action.”
